Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan  

Closed Threads

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

A fellow makes himself conspicuous when he throws soft-boiled eggs at the electric fan.

They played this video of a song where the chorus was "I believe in a thing called love", rather...shrieked. And the video was really weird. And looked like something out of the 80s. WTF was that all about? Can anyone explain this song/band/concept to me? It was oddly intriguing.

I saw this when I was in Oxford in September and I was MESMERIZED. I laughed SO HARD. And then I bought the DVD single. I listen to this all the time. I should get their other stuff.

I still think they're a joke, but then I listen to Tenacious D much more than you would think it warrants. Also: what am I listening to RIGHT NOW? "The First Bratwurst of Summer" by Those Darn Accordions! Yeah, I have a high tolerance for jokey music.

What I came here to ask: Has anybody started messing around with GarageBand?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My poor little 900 mhz G3 iBook isn't quite up to the requirements for GarageBand - but I'm tempted to get it anyway.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Me too, but a darned catchy one. And CURSE YOU MEARA! Because of you, I've been earwormed with "I believe in a Thing Called Love" all morning!

I got Tina's mix! It is *awesome.*

Yay! Glad it got there and that you like it.

Everyone where I work looooves the Darkness. I can't say I've really listened besides what I hear floating over the cube walls.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Because of you, I've been earwormed with "I believe in a Thing Called Love" all morning!

Like I was earwormed with "Take Me Out" all day yesterday.

And, about a different type of Britpop -- reviewing the latest from Kylie Minogue and Sophie Ellis-Bextor. Who've done some wonderful dance-pop singles.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

This is so odd to hear. Hec listening to country?? WTF?? It seems so...wrong, somehow.

Well, you know I am all about challenging the conventional wisdom on music and trying to use my ears rather than marketing labels. Besides, I've always liked George Strait, had Shelby Lynne records when she was still doing straight country and it was no big leap from Emmylou to Rodney Crowell and Roseanne Cash. So I've been dipping my toe into whatever was current in country from time to time.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I'm curious, do you like The Dixie Chicks, Hec?

Sure. I have Dixie Chicks records from before Natalie joined, when they were a quartet and wore cowgirl outfits.

That's right - I remember you telling me that. I think my brain has left.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Actually, I've been thinking I should send you some of that. Their song "Pink Toenails" seems like a very Aimee song. Also, they did stunning four part harmony a capella versions of songs like "You Send Me" and "Bring It On Home."
